Figaro is a .NET Framework library that uses C++/CLI to create a high-performance integration layer to the Oracle Berkeley DB XML database engine, one of the highest ranked native XML data storage engines according to DBEngines.

Berkeley DB, one of the most ubiquitous database engines on the Unix platform, has been the database driver for MySQL, Yammer, and the Red Hat Package Manager, is now a development option for the Microsoft .NET developer ecosystem.

Berkeley DB is "embedded" because it links directly into the application. It runs in the same address space as the application. As a result, no inter-process communication, either over the network or between processes on the same machine, is required for database operations. Berkeley DB provides a simple function-call API for a number of programming languages, including C, C++, Java, Perl, Tcl, Python, PHP, and with the Endpoint Systems family of support libraries, the .NET Framework. BerkeleyDB.Core allows .NET developers leverage the Oracle Berkeley DB embedded database engine on Windows, Linux and MacOS platforms using the .NET Core framework.

Currently this product is only available as an alpha release for the Linux platform, with an estimated release date of May 2017. If you're interested in learning more about testing and licensing, please contact Endpoint Systems for more information.
